THE KRAYOLAS - KOLORED MUSIC (1982)
"Kolored Music" was an impressive start for this Mexican-American pop group from San Antonio, Texas; their music has a joyous, unpretentious quality that makes every cut a treat. Basing their sound on the '60s - there are traces of Paul Revere and the Raiders, the Box Tops, Monkees and, of course, the Beatles - the Krayolas stood apart from others sharing the basic pop impulse by using brass on seven of the album's ten tracks. The horns never get in the way, but instead add a soulful edge to the sweet innocent voices. A consistently pleasing album. Trouser Press

An album that never made it to CD. It comes complete with custom jewel artwork.
